16-Port Gigabit PoE Access Switching

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS is a Cisco Catalyst 2960-L Smart Managed branch access switch intended for network access, with 16 x 1G PoE+ and 2 x 1G SFP. The fixed port configuration is important when replacing a matching installed chassis or preserving a known cable plant. Powered endpoint support must be sized against the shared PoE allocation before ordering. The smart-managed version uses its onboard management interface for setup and monitoring. An equipment refresh should preserve the original port media, software behavior, and optic interface type. Check chassis labels and the exact PID before substituting an apparently similar variant from the same family.

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS price for new stock is $1,182.87. WS-C2960L-SM-16PS refurb price is $733.09. WS-C2960L-SM-16PS is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

Technical Details

120W of shared PoE output must be allocated among powered endpoints; the installed port count does not guarantee full simultaneous per-port demand. WS-C2960L-SM-16PS provides smart-managed switching for its stated access configuration. The LAN Lite software configuration must be matched to any feature or operational requirement already deployed. Optical uplinks use fixed onboard interfaces, so module expansion should not be assumed. The SFP positions accept separately ordered optics appropriate to the fiber link. An existing rack, local power arrangement and network management method should be checked before fitting a replacement. Cisco last support date 31 October 2026. Where an exact platform figure is not established, capacity, power draw and dimensions are not asserted as values for a different switch in the family.

Ordering

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS is available through ORM Systems in new sealed and certified refurbished condition. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on, POST, clean boot and link at rated speed on their physical ports; managed units also receive firmware verification and a factory-default wipe. For purchasing, confirm the exact PID, condition, port-media requirements and quantity on the PO. New hardware carries up to a 3-year extended ORM warranty; certified refurbished hardware carries up to 1 year, with 30-day returns on either condition subject to terms. ORM accepts purchase orders, offers Net-30 for government customers and RMA with advance replacement, with regional stock and RMA coverage in the UK, EU, US and MEA.

Manufacturer hardware support milestone

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS: Cisco last support date 31 October 2026. Cisco and ORM warranty coverage are separate; confirm maintenance expectations and the replacement plan for installations retaining this generation.

Optics ordered for fixed uplinks

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS has 2 onboard SFP interfaces. The purchase order must account separately for compatible optical transceivers and fiber cabling; the fixed cages do not constitute removable uplink cards.

Shared powered endpoint allocation

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS has a shared 120W PoE budget across 16 access ports. The configured endpoint draw must be added before ordering; total budget is not the same as maximum output on every port.

Best For

Installed Hardware Replacement

When an installed Catalyst 2960-L switch is replaced like for like, WS-C2960L-SM-16PS preserves a configuration of 16 x 1G PoE+ with 2 x 1G SFP. Match the existing port media and network software before creating the purchase order. Verify the enclosure fit, installed optics and any ongoing Cisco support dependency.

Staging and Spare Inventory

For a maintenance stockroom retaining Catalyst 2960-L equipment, a spare WS-C2960L-SM-16PS should be tested against the installed switch configuration before it is accepted. Use a consistent firmware and backup configuration process for managed hardware. Specify the exact item, condition and expected cable connections on the order.

Endpoint Power Planning

A network segment with powered access devices needs the WS-C2960L-SM-16PS PoE ports checked against a shared 120W output allocation. Individual devices can require different power classes. Add the intended device power requirements and the uplink optics to the parts list before the purchase order is issued.

Not Suitable If

Unrestricted simultaneous port power

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS has a shared PoE allocation rather than an unlimited supply for all powered endpoints. Size the connected device loads against the installed power budget before selecting hardware.

New generation software support

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS belongs to the Catalyst 2960-L generation. Cisco last support date 31 October 2026.

Questions & Answers

What is WS-C2960L-SM-16PS?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS is a Cisco Catalyst 2960-L smart managed switch with 16 x 1G PoE+ and 2 x 1G SFP. The fixed physical configuration makes it important to match existing copper and fiber infrastructure. It is intended for network access, with the exact hardware PID determining the ports shipped.

Which management methods does WS-C2960L-SM-16PS support?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS is classified as smart managed equipment rather than a configuration-free unmanaged switch. The available management experience depends on the Catalyst 2960-L software implementation and any installed software image. Configuration should be preserved and checked when replacing a deployed switch.

Does WS-C2960L-SM-16PS support PoE?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS provides PoE+ on its powered access ports. The shared 120W allocation must cover the connected powered endpoints. The order should identify the required power arrangement. Review the exact hardware and installation context before committing stock to a purchase order.

What uplinks does WS-C2960L-SM-16PS have?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS has 2 x 1G SFP. The installed media must match the mating equipment at the other end of the link. Optical ports require compatible transceiver and cabling choices where applicable, and the fixed configuration should not be described as an optional network module.

Is WS-C2960L-SM-16PS end of support?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS Cisco last support date 31 October 2026. Cisco hardware support and ORM’s sales condition are separate. A replacement plan should include network software continuity, compatible ports and any required optical connectivity. Review the exact hardware and installation context before committing stock to a purchase order.

Can WS-C2960L-SM-16PS be used as a direct replacement?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS can replace matching installed hardware where its 16 x 1G PoE+ and 2 x 1G SFP agree with the equipment being removed. A similar product name does not guarantee identical software, ports, power or optics. Verify the full PID and the physical connections before ordering the replacement.

Which software image is on WS-C2960L-SM-16PS?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS uses the LAN Lite software configuration. The installed operating image must be verified on a used or refurbished device before it returns to production.

What should be checked before ordering WS-C2960L-SM-16PS?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS should be matched by complete manufacturer part number, physical port layout and uplink media. Confirm the required condition, management compatibility, optic parts and local power arrangements. Where the switch is discontinued, account separately for the absence or end date of Cisco support.

Is WS-C2960L-SM-16PS rack mountable?

WS-C2960L-SM-16PS has a compact desktop chassis within the Catalyst 2960-L family.
